ESP/BAS and Traction Control - MERGED
So today I was driving in the city like normal. I went over a speed bump at a cautious speed then my ESP/BAS and Traction control lights came on. I clicked the esp off button on my dash and the traction control light went off but the other stayed on. Any thoughts?

Check if there's a code. Good place to start.
I just got the exact same lights and Torque reported U140A. Fix for that particular code is to replace the abs speed sensor. I'll find out tomorrow if that does it.

This happened to be after loaded up the front end with winch, it happens randomly and then goes off. Guessing alignment could be slightly out or wheel bearings are going

Mine did the same thing today. Went over a bump and the ABS and ESP light came on. The weird thing is that right after that I came up to a stop sign. When taking off, it sounded like the rear axle was spinning, on the drivers side.
The dealer was just in there to replace the axel seals a few months ago. Is it possible that something came lose, and the axel really was free spinning?

I checked and there is no DTC code when you turn the key 3 Times like you're suppose to.

I switched the abs sensor out yesterday and lights are gone now thankfully. Would have taken a LOT longer and $$ to figure out which sensor was reporting a fault without that code.

I had to use a cheapo Bluetooth OBD reader to get the code. The key thing didn't work for me either for some reason. Maybe swing by a auto part store and ask to borrow their reader?

I recommend picking up this OBD2 reader as it also does ABS codes and SRS (airbag) codes. Works with every vehicle I've hooked it up too.
